Treat distribution
We’re bring the snow indoors with a Canadian winter tradition – maple taffy!
Maple taffy is made by pouring hot, boiled maple syrup onto a clean bed of snow (“snow” used for this experience is freshly made crushed ice). The cold snow instantly cools the syrup, turning it into a chewy, taffy-like candy. You can then roll the taffy onto a stick and enjoy it while it’s still a bit warm
Be sure to get your ticket at the ticket booth while supplies last.
